Yup, I would say that Mizuki is the most normal main character in this series so far. The boys are such goofballs with their exaggerated fantasies, especially that blonde guy.

Even Kazuhiro (the one with the glasses) had a weird personality. At this rate, this is pretty much a comedy that pokes fun at the idea of chunibyo. Yamato is also pretty weird with the poses.

Answer me this before I start watching: Is this reverse harem or sausagefest? Because if it does, I'm skipping that one.

I like chuuni characters quite a lot in general and the dynamic between the girl and the crazy boys could be pretty fun. Not entirely sold on it yet though

This was a hectic start, things went by pretty fast. The characters r pretty interesting and lol she shouldn't have expected anythng from him, ofc he was talking about 2D female friends.
Also I saw music tag in the genre, I wonder how music will fit in this series.

Like the concept and it's somewhat amusing, but I'm not really feeling it yet.

What I see in this is that age old adage: girls mature earlier than boys. In other words - boys are dumb. And this anime seems set to poke fun at it in the most delightful ways, without taking itself too seriously. Definitely looks like a solid choice to just switch your brain off and have some easy laughs.
And don't be ashamed if you recognise your spirit animal in one of the characters.

Heard nothing about this show before but it turns out better than I expect. Hope it keeps up with this level of animation, which is really makes the comedy work so well.

OMFG this was an awesome first episode! So many scenes made me cry with laughter and i already love all the characters!

I really like the way the story was told in a way that makes you question if the 4 boys are really deluded or if there might be something to the things they say instead of the usual 'everyone can tell they're nuts' thing that is presented in chuunibyou comedy!

I can't wait for next weeks episode and for the last chuubyou gekihatsu boy to arrive!

I watched Aura: Koga Maryuin's Last War a few years ago. It was a beautiful movie, a poignant deconstruction of the chuunibyou archetype that this show pokes fun of, and ever since I watched it, I don't think I can have fun with chuunibyou characters ever again. Even so, props to this series for trying to get me to care about chuuniyou characters again.

I like Chinatsu Akasaki. I think she's a fantastic actress and I think she can deliver excellent performances... as long as she's given the right material to work with. Mizuki is a fine character on its own, but it looks like her whole deal will be how she puts up with Yamato and the other weird kids, whose antics come off as cringe-worthy and uncomfortable rather than genuinely amusing. I get that they're trying to be friendly with Mizuki, but considering that she wants to be a normal person, you're likely to be frustrated at the chuunibyou kids because they make things needlessly complicated for her.

Despite the lackluster premiere, I'm not ready to throw in the towel with the show, yet. There is still a chance for this show to pick up steam and be genuinely enjoyable.

I think it's just an average chuunibyou anime, but I sorta liked this one, even if they pretty much just threw a lot of info straigh in our faces. The male guys have a good chemistry between them. And these characters, they're just so cringe that makes me feel embarassed for them, which is probably going to keep me enjoying for a while xD.

A female 転校生 joins a class with a bunch of 中二病 idiots. They attempt to recruit her into their club, but ultimately just end up embarrassing her. The anime is a pure comedy not to be taken seriously. So far it's not that amazing, but I have a feeling this is one of those anime that I'll remember for whatever reason. It just seems like one of those settings that will feel comfy and nostalgic in a few years from now. I don't know why I get that feeling, but I do.

This was really entertaining for me. Watching the chunibyo boys act like well...chunibyo around her was really funny. I personally like the simplistic art style. The designs of the characters fit their personality, too, and are pretty nice. Originally I thought this was going to be a harem, lol.

Well that sums up this show.

Not sure how to feel about this, but there's always a thing with Studio Deen and comedy (as evidenced by KonoSuba).

Got a bit of chuckles here and there. Giving this a 2nd chance...

i don't really know what to think about that. it was enjoyable to watch, however i think it could lead to either a great anime or an above average anime. the next episodes will probably be decisive.

the only thing that make me hope that it will be a good anime is the number of episodes. so far i have never been disappointed by a 11 episodes anime ^^. not a very rational thinking however ^^

I'm pretty sure it was tagged music because the series is based on a vocaloid song. The opening is a cover of that song.

Purple?! The culprit was purple? Has he sided with the Agency? Or was he just testing to Pink to help her awaken her true powers? Lighthearted and fun.

That was alright.

Comedy was a little hit or miss, but characters are interesting and the dynamic between all of them has potential.

5/10 for now. I feel like this has a low ceiling though. Estimate an early drop or a 4-6.

Found it pretty enjoyable and it made me laugh a couple of times; will definitely carry on watching it. I also really liked all the characters (especially Takashima) and can't wait to find more about the culprit lol

Um....lol?

It was pretty mediocre for me for most of the episode till the end when Noda had time to "kick" the falling hoop twice and still have time to wince in pain in between...ahahahaha

But yeah, I agree with someone else saying the comedy is hit or miss and the next ep might be what breaks it for me (or not)

Why is this so hard to sit through? I mean all the constituent elements seem more or less decent, but it took so much willpower just to sit through the episode... probably drop because this doesn't seem to agree with me anyhow...

What a funny anime, the animation seems great. I'm not saying that it will fill the void that Joshikousei no Mudazukai left from the previous season, but it's just as fun. I laughed a lot with this first episode, it seems that those guys really had some kind of strange power. The boy with blue hair and glasses, Black, is the one who looks the funniest, I couldn't help laughing with his "uncontrollable arm." He reminds me of Yamamoto (Joshikousei no Mudazukai), hahaha 😂. Poor Hijiri, she is surrounded by crazy people.
Definitely, this anime goes to the list.

I'm usually not a big fan of chuunibyou characters, like, in Chuunibyou delusions, my favourite characters are Tooka and Nibutani, and in Genshiken my favourite character is Saki, but I think I might still stick around for this one. It's pretty funny and, while the art style doesn't really grab me, I like the premise so far, how the boys are a bit crazy but still essentially really nice and helpful people. Except Rei so far. He can go fuck himself.
